ENJOY PERFECTING ULTRA-EXTREME-PRECISION OPTICS SYSTEMS

Imagine perfecting an optical system where aberrations are kept to within one thousandth of the wavelength used. One where 200kg reflectors must be positioned to within an accuracy of less than one nanometer. And then repositioned every second to compensate for mill kelvin fluctuations. Imagine using a sensitivity matrix with multiple thousands of elements to calculate how to reposition those mirrors. And imagine working with a highly motivated team, dedicated to perfecting this extreme-precision instrumentation and optical system.

If you enjoy working at (and beyond) the edge of what is possible in optics, ASML is your ideal environment.

ASML is the world's leading provider of lithography systems for the semiconductor industry. Their machines use Deep Utraviolet (DUV) and Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) light which have 193 and 13.5 nm wavelengths respectively. The necessary degree of control accuracy is so extreme and the instrumentation needed to enable that control is so complex, that ASML optics engineers need expertise in many other fields. Colleagues in physics, mechatronics, electronics, software, thermal engineering and dynamics all share their knowledge to help each other innovate. ASML is relentlessly driving the semiconductor industry’s ongoing quest for producing faster, smarter and more energy efficient chips. They have a young, dynamic, international and highly skilled workforce creating, with strong support of their suppliers, the lithographic tools the industry needs to achieve its goals.

We are looking for an optical design engineer that takes the challenge to design, test and integrate, together with the project team, ASML's optical functions.

Functie

The mission of the Design Engineer is to design, integrate & validate sustainable and reliable state of the art EUV technology. You work in a multidisciplinary team (physics, mechanics, mechatronics, software, electronics, etc.) and ensure an effective and smooth transfer to your internal customers (customer support, manufacturing). You know what your (internal) customers need, and provide (on site) support in case complex issues arise they cannot handle.

As Design Engineer you will play a key role within a multidisciplinary team that delivers EUV optical elements. You will design, implement and test EUV hardware, software, and procedures. During all this you will be cooperating with other disciplines and suppliers where it is expected that you drive design aspects, analyse system problems, and support and plan issue resolution with peers. Furthermore, you will report the progress of above activities to the main stakeholders: The team leader and architect for EUV.
